In the darkness, a fishing boat with a sharp bow sliced through the river like a plough through soil.
Suddenly, the waves were split apart by a dazzlingly bright broadsword Qi, transforming the water into ice, and violently crashing into the bow of the boat.
The defensive formation almost gave out, and with a 'thud', the bow was forced to lift high up as if it were an unruly horse tilting to one side.
The fish-cultivators on the boat let out cries of alarm. Before they could react to this sudden change, several 'buzzing' golden lines shot past, howls of pain abruptly cut short.
"Golden Silkworm Gu?"
One person on the boat exclaimed in surprise and joy, and shouted, "Brother Chen, is that you?"
"Qiangzi?!"
With a flash of the sword Qi, Chen Dengming's large and towering figure landed on the boat, stomping down on the tilting vessel causing waves to fly up with a 'thud'.
